Yesterday afternoon and evening there was a significant snow front come through and it has deposited 11cm of powder at village level. Today is cloudy and it looks likely that we won't see the sun make an appearance. It is cold out there at -15c but will warm up a bit by mid morning. Needless to say there will be fantastic skiing all over the mountain with the nice topping up of new snow.
